Burn Butterfly Burn (Masked Duet, #2)

by Reese Rivers

“Gonna fuck this pussy so hard you’ll never forget it’s mine, Butterfly. Squeeze my cock, baby, milk me dry. You’re so fucking tight and wet I could stay here for days fucking this pussy. Been waiting so damn long to claim it, claim you. You’re my Butterfly, my angel. Fucking come for me! Give me what’s mine!” I command.

“I…I’m not running. I just need to go home. I need some space from all of yo…this.” Jude steps off the treadmill, angry with my response just as Ash walks in. He looks around at all of us and when his shoulders slump I squeeze my nails into my palms.

“You had over four fucking years of space, Savy! Enough with the games!” Tate bites out. Well, fuck him! Fuck all of them. “Games? I’m playing games? Fuck you! You’re the ones playing games with me. Four fucking years worth! You keep talking about the messages you sent, the letters? You want me to read them all like that will fix everything but none of that will fix what happened.” There’s a hard ball of pain in my chest that grows with each word as my voice gets louder and more desperate as the real reason I can’t do this again breaks free. “You didn’t believe me! You didn’t fucking choose me! You…you left me ALONE!” The pain in my chest doubles me over so I wrap my arms around my stomach and hold on as tight as I can trying to keep my pieces together. Just as my knees give out strong arms wrap around me and carry me over to the weight bench. Tate holds me in his lap as hands stroke my back and hair. I sit there feeling so empty that I can’t even cry. My voice is flat and emotionless as I keep my eyes on the wall across the room. “You left me alone. Four years and not one of you came. Not after it happened or all the time since. Why should I believe that you want me? All your words mean nothing because you didn’t come when I needed you. You left me alone.” Jude hits his knees in front of me but I keep my eyes away from him. I don’t want to look at his or any of their faces right now. “Baby doll, fuck, fuck. We thought we were doing the right thing.”

Ash tries to turn my chin to look at them but I pull my face away. His voice is soaked in guilt. “It’s my fault…again. They wanted to go to you, fix everything. I asked them if they were going to make you choose between them. Jude was going to play on the west coast and Tate was headed to Florida. They were going to win you back but then you’d have to choose who to be with. I was being…selfish. I hated...

Jude and Tate chime in on top of each other. “That’s not your fault.” “We all agreed.” Beck rubs my back with a sigh. “And then Tanner came to us and we worried about his mother going after you.” Tate presses his face to my hair. “We should have just come to get you, baby girl. We could have figured everything else out after we fixed...

Jude takes one of my hands and forces my fingers to open, scowls at what he finds and then kisses the angry red indents my nails made in my skin. He places my palm against his chest over his heart. “Baby doll, I need you to look at me for a minute and then we’ll…let you go.”

“You shouldn’t forgive us. We don’t deserve it for how many times we fucked up, how many times we hurt you. You deserve so much better than all of us. But you need to know this. There are seven billion people on this planet and out of all those people, every single one of us chooses you. We will always choose you, doll. So, you shouldn’t forgive us but I’m asking you to anyway. I’m asking you to choose us. Choose us for forever. Knock that wall down, doll. Do it for yourself. Choose love and we will give it to you until the day we die. We will never leave you alone again.”

“Bullshit, Savy. You didn’t give me everything. You gave me a fucking peek over the wall you hide behind. A small glimpse of who you really are and it made me fall head over heels in love with you.”

“I’m going to break you free from this, angel. I’m going to help you fly.” “I want him to be yours too. I can’t change who gave birth to him and I wouldn’t because he wouldn’t be who he is if I did but you could be his mother going forward. We could be a family, darlin’.” “Let me be your hero.” “Please, Savy, just give me a chance to show you that man. Be brave, and you’ll never have to be alone again.” “There are seven billion people on this planet and out of all those people, every single one of us chooses you. We will always choose you.” “When are you going to stop running, doll?” “I’m asking you to choose us. Choose us for forever. Knock that wall down, doll. Do it for yourself. Choose love and we will give it to you until the day we die. We will never leave you alone again.” “Say it, Savy. Say what you trapped behind that wall of yours. Fucking say it!”

The house is dark by the time I finally come to terms with what I’ve been fighting against. and I yell it out so loud that it echoes back. “I choose them!”

Ash sent me nothing. No texts, no letters, no gifts but I understand why. He told me about his journey in therapy to be a different, more trusting man. He couldn’t reach out to me until he felt like he was the man I deserved.

My voice comes out a plea as I hold a hand down to her to help her up. “Baby girl, please…” A wide smile forms on her face as she starts to nod. “Yes.” My outstretched hand starts to shake. “Yes…what?” She takes my hand in hers and says, “Yes, to it all. I choose you too, Tate.”

I pull back to look into the purest blue eyes I’ve ever seen and demand, “Say…it…again.” Her small fingers press over my heart and her eyes go soft and sweet. “I choose you. I love you, Tate.”

“My pussy, my cunt, my fucking baby girl!”

“Baby girl, you can’t run from me ever again,” I tell her softly as she trembles in my arms. “I can’t promise you I won’t make mistakes, that I won’t fuck things up with you but I can promise to try fucking hard not to. I need you not to run if I do mess up. You need to yell at me, curse me out, fight with me but never run, never run again. Please, Savy, promise you’ll stay and fight for me, fight for us?”

“I’m going to make mistakes too. It…it will take me time to learn how to live without a mask. How to open myself to you, to all of you. So I’ll promise not to run if you promise to be patient, to have faith in me, to believe in me when I do make mistakes. I promise, Tate, from now on, every day, I’ll fight for us.”

“Baby girl, that’s how we choose each other every damn day for the rest of our lives.”

I find Tate standing next to the dining nook that’s still piled high with all the books he and Jude had sent to me over the years. He has a hand pressed to his mouth and a sheen of tears in his eyes. There’s something about seeing this large, tough man getting so emotional that has my heart swooning even more for him.

“Thank you for sending me these. I read all your highlights and notes. Tate, thank you for not giving up on me.”

“You have no idea how much razzing I took from the other players over all of these. I always had a book with me in between practice and games. One year for Christmas they gave me a case of highlighters and a case of post-it flags. It felt like it was the only thing I could do to stay close to you at the time. Fuck, baby girl, I missed you so much.”

“It was close but he’s stabilized enough to get him up to surgery. I’ll be back shortly to have Miss Sevan transported.”

“Everyone I love leaves.”

“Baby girl? Savy baby, please wake up. I need you. I need you so bad, baby.” It’s a croaked, hoarse voice saying that but it’s a lie. That voice is gone. He left me. “Savy, you said you chose me. You said you love me. You promised, baby. You promised you wouldn’t r-run again. You promised to choose us every day, baby girl.”

“Baby doll, Tate said you chose us when he was trying to get you to come back. Is that true? Are you ours?” I squeeze his hands, glance at Ash and Beck, and nod. “Be-before Vanessa came that night? I had figured some things out. I read all your messages, your letters. It made me finally realize that you had picked me after all. I owe you all an apology for being too scared to realize that.”

Jude growls out “No!”

“I do, Jude. You were right. I’ve been hiding from the world, from love for most of my life. I don’t want to do that anymore. I want to be with all of you, build a life together.” I turn to Beck. “I want a family with you if you’ll trust me with Tanner.” Beck snatches me up onto his lap and buries his face in my hair. “Thank you, darlin’. That makes me so fucking happy to hear.” When he finally sets me back down, I take a deep breath. “I need you all to know that it won’t be easy. I’m going to make mistakes. Sometimes it will all be too much and I’ll pull back, go dark on you.”

“That’s alright, doll. I’ll go with you. I’ll sit in the dark with you until you’re ready and then I’ll be the light to show you the way out.”

“We’re all going to make mistakes as we figure this out, angel. But as long as we remember that we love each other and choose each other every day, it will work out. We’re gonna love you so damn hard, Butterfly, and I know you’ll love us back just as hard.”

“I made a promise to you. I’ll never leave again. I’m so sorry for what happened to you, Tate. It’s all my fault.”

“I am in love with four men and they love me back. We are in an equally committed relationship and plan to spend our lives building a family together.”

“There’s my fucking girl, my Butterfly. No bars to keep me away from you now, angel.”

I feel a big hot hand drag up the slit of my dress on one side and they meet the icy blues of my Beck. “Fuck me, darlin’ you look like a shiny red apple I want to eat in this dress. You’re the best kind of temptation.”

Jude’s mouth slides a trail of heat up my neck from my bare shoulder.

“Mmm, baby doll. Not gonna last long here tonight. Need to eat your pussy until I suffocate between your thighs. It’s gonna be an all-you-can-eat Savy buffet with all of us filling our plates.”

“You’re so fucking hot, darlin’. We’re going to use this tight little body of yours so good when we get home.”

“You’re going to take all of our cocks, darlin’. We’re going to stretch all your pretty little holes at the same time and make it burn so fucking good.”

“You heard her. My doll aches to be touched, brother. She needs relief.” He bites down on his plush bottom lip and juts his head at Beck. “Our brother’s still recovering, man. You should give him a hand.”

“Gonna suck on those sweet berry nipples of yours, darlin’, while Tate and I fuck your pussy with our fingers. You’re going to come so hard all over this seat you’ll leave a puddle on the leather.”

Jude crawls onto the bed toward me and then strips the red dress up and over my head with a grin. “You like? We had it made just for our family bonding time. Can’t have little ears hearing you scream, doll.” And then he yanks my knees apart and shoves his face into my pussy. My hands go to his hair and pull him back with a laugh. “Jude! Let me clean off first!” He licks his lips and shakes his head. “Nuh-uh, this is my favorite, I love you all sloppy and filthy. My tongue’s gonna clean it all up so we can dirty you back up again.” He tells me and then dives back in, licking up all of Ash and my mess.

Ash and Tate grab my thighs and spread me even further, their hot palms squeezing me. I feel worshiped as they all gaze down at my pussy. Ash grabs Jude by the hair and pushes his face against us.

“I want to see that tongue on them. Lick her cream off his cock as he fucks it out of her.” Oh God, oh God, Jude’s tongue swipes over my clit and down to lick Beck’s shaft as he thrusts in and out of me and it has my channel pulsing and squeezing around that cock.

“Fucking perfection.” He breathes out roughly. “Baby girl, you look so fucking beautiful taking their cocks together. Your pussy’s magic. It’s stretching and sucking them in, begging for more.” His eyes lift to meet mine and go hard and intense. “Open your fucking mouth and take mine too. We’re all going to fuck you at once.”

Beck has Tanner

Stella bounces one of my three-year-old twin daughters on her hip as she claps her tiny hands for her daddy on the field. Mark rocks the other one, soothing her as the loud noises overwhelm her and Tate slides up behind me and cups my growing belly with baby number three inside. A baby boy

He smirks up at me and asks, “You playing me, doll?” And I tell him exactly what he wants to hear. “No, baby, but I’ll play with you, every day…forever.”
